## Description

<strong>CleanLink</strong> automatically removes tracking parameters from URLs before pages load, so links stay cleaner, shorter, and more private.

It strips common trackers such as <code>utm_*</code>, <code>fbclid</code>, <code>gclid</code>, <code>msclkid</code>, <code>ttclid</code>, <code>twclid</code>, <code>mkt_tok</code>, <code>mc_cid</code>, and many others.

<strong>Main features</strong>
- Automatically cleans tracking parameters from links during browsing
- Cleans links directly on the page before you click them
- Cleans copied links so shared URLs stay private and readable
- Works quietly in the background with no setup required
- Includes an optional anonymous analytics mode that can be turned off at any time

<strong>Why it matters</strong>
Advertising and analytics platforms use tagged URLs to track where traffic comes from and to help build behavioral profiles. CleanLink removes those parameters before they spread through your browsing, bookmarks, clipboard, and shared links.

<strong>Anonymous analytics</strong>
If enabled, CleanLink sends only limited anonymized technical and usage data:
- visited domain
- event date and time
- country code
- random install ID
- browser language
- basic browser metadata

<strong>What CleanLink does not collect</strong>
- names
- email addresses
- passwords
- form contents
- cookies
- messages
- page contents
- precise location

<strong>Data use</strong>
Anonymous data is used only for:
- debugging extension behavior
- improving tracker detection
- understanding which trackers appear most often
- measuring which websites use tracking parameters most heavily

<strong>We never sell user data.</strong>
